OVERVIEW
The Part 2 class is for pastors and religious leaders serving in a ministerial context characterized by transition in leadership, culture, context, and ministry who wish to broaden their understanding and skills for leading in the midst of change.

The contact hours during the seven-week session will be offered Thursdays from 10:00 a.m. -1:30 p.m. ET via Zoom. Participants are expected to focus fully on this program.
